    Buffing after wet sanding

    I know this may be a bad question, but can you buff after finish sanding with 3000 without a rotary buffer?

    Yes! A quality DA will do the trick and won't leave you with holograms

    Awesome, what da would you recommend? I was looking into buying the poorboy's package... would their polishes work or no? Thanks for the advice!

    I would get either a Griots or the Meguiars unit

    I would imagine Poorboys compound would work just fine

    I'm going to send you a PM with a link that might prove usefull

    No problem man!

    Could you PM me that link also please? I have a buddy that is getting ready to wet sand a newly painted MGB. Any info I could forward to him would be great.

    Let me first eat my Animal Crackers so I don't get cookie crumbs in my keyboard

    Re: Buffing after wet sanding

    I have not wet sanded paint, but I know Garry Dean has posted a video of him wet sanding a Bentley's bumper and then removing the sanding marks with a PC 7424 using Meg105 on an orange CCS LC pad.

    Click here for the link to the thread.

    Have fun!

    PCXP plus Meguiars MF cutting pads and M105 will work wonders. This was after sanding with 2500.
